Image Writing December 1994
Welcome to the December 1994 issue of Image. We have a couple new
developments. First, as a suggestion my Mogel, I have decided to
change the name of the group to Image Writing. You can still call
it Image for short, but this is just to clear up some confusion.
Anyhow, things seem to be going pretty great for us. The writing
seems to be pretty steady. Also, more and more people are becoming
interested in this little group of ours. Image is getting more
distro sites, and are moving up in this modem world of ours.
Well, after this issue I think Image is going to take a little break
for a month or so. Thus, if we dont come out with a issue in January
dont be surprised. Even writers need breaks. Well, I hope you all
have a great holiday season. Read and enjoy...

Pink Pig by Acid Reign
Eat the sky, devour my soul
Heart ache, bad luck, red neck mold
Falling clouds, deep red rain
Torqed memories of yesterdays sin
Trough a cloud, fall like wind
Painful silence, has no end
Growing flesh, digits morphing
Dangling mirrors, carpets warping
Active fuzz, glowing white
synthetic visions, in my sight
Jesus running, chasing lambs
Senior citizens, marrow slam
Sleepless thoughts, burning eyes
Loving god, a better high?
Killing song, in my mind
Lights come on, now Im blind
Suits By Acid Reign
The water moves
They own me
Stars fill the sky
They own me
The darkness never ends
They own me
The trees are alive
But they own me
We are equal
They own me
Keep staring at me from your pedestal desk,
high in a room where you plan our lives.
You own me, you control me,
but you have never seen me....
Make lives for your friends -- give them careers.
Dont give a shit about the others,
your not them you just control...
Screw your job and worthless rules you make.
its time to stop caring about the suits
and live our own lives.
They own us... but not anymore!
Wall of feeling By Acid Reign
The walls close the sound of the thought.
echo the words that endlessly spill from
the authoritative mouth. Forced to swallow
what they feed. Feeding me the health of
their ideals. Ideal that follow a book
with no real name. Stop me from thinking.
Stop me, then kill me if its not theirs.
Happy pictures on the walls, the walls
are what they want me to be... pictures
made with no reason, no feelings. I dont
know these pictures on the wall, the wall
that keeps me from feeling.
Dream Lover
In my heart
On my mind
Through my eyes
It seems to say
Ill always love
Ill always try
I never thought
Youd come to play
My heart, it sings
With love for you
I dream, I pray
That youd love me
Youre on my mind
Youre in my heart
And Im too shy
To let you see.
-Ed
Untitled
Mirror Mirror,
my satanic friend.
I look at you
and all I see..... is me.
Not beauty
Not fame
A failure.
My dream is gone.
People pass by
and dont bother
to see me.
My beauty is not seen by
you.
You fiend.
Not by anyone.
Only me.
And sometimes
not even that!
-Ed
Skitsofrenia
I talk to myself
and some one else answers,
but its still me.
Voices roam free.
Too many to count.
They keep me company
when Im lonely.
Theyre my friends,
but sometimes
they keep me up,
wont let me be,
wont shut up.
I scream, GO AWAY
Rip my hair out,
but they wont leave.
My hands shake grabbing
for my eyes.
I try so hard to make them shut,
but they stay.
They say, Were your friends,
wed never hurt you.
They scream, WELL ALWAYS
BE HERE FOR YOU.
They wont leave unless I make them.
The scissors are on the table.
I grab them,
and plunge them into my ear.
Theyll shut up now.
Theyll leave me alone.
Everyone will....
-Ed
Windowpane
I look out my window and see a world that goes on without me. I see a
world of flowers and trees, and unhappy people, living a life that
goes on without me. Millions of people live outside my window, not
bothering to look inside, not bothering to look strait into these
green eyes that stare out at them. None of them will come break the
glass to let me out, even though I wish that more than anything I
have ever wished in my whole life. Why wont they just let me out?
Everything looks so nice out there. Its just like the painting my
dad hung on my wall when I was little, so bright and beautiful. Its
so different from the dark, miserable place where theyve left me.
Everyone is so sad in here. I know that some things are hard out
there, but I know that if they let me back out that Ill do better
this time. I promise. Why wont they let me out?
So many things have changed. My problems are all gone. Im happy.
They dont have to worry about me anymore, but still, no one will
listen to me. They all say that Im a danger to myself. They say
that they cant let me back out because I might try to hurt myself..
or someone else. I would never do that. Ive learned that was
wrong of me. My seven years here have taught me so much. Theyve made
me so happy to be alive. So why wont they let me out?
When they put me in here they said that when I was all better that
they would let me out, but no one will believe me. I want to go back
out into the world with all the happy people so that I can be happy
with them. I want everyone to be as happy as the people from that
picture in my room. Everyone smiled and played under the nice blue
sky with the pretty rainbow, and the nice fluffy, white clouds.
Everyone will smile and be happy and say, Oh, I cant believe how
nice that little girl with the green eyes is. She showed me that I
have all the reasons in the world to be happy. Thats what theyll
say. And then theyll go and play on the swings and in the sandbox
just like Im gonna do when they let me out. But why wont they let
me out?
The nice lady in the white jacket with the neat stethoscope-thingy
said that I can leave soon. Maybe theyll actually let me out. Ill
be ready for when they do. Ill be ready to make everyone so happy
that theyll scream for joy.... just like mommy and daddy did. After
all... everyone is so happy when they are in heaven... I cant wait
til they let me out.
-Ed
Chemical Imbalance
Angels die for my sins,
but do I care?
No.
My only escape from reality
is a forced chemical imbalance.
Ive found hope
its in deception.
Ive found happiness
its in my head.
-Logik
Fuck The World
Lies intertwined with psychedelic images.
Misconceptions lead to misunderstandings,
violence and anger.
I hate you, Fuck off bitch.
The echoing voices of ignorant people
flood the world, hitting harder and harder
until it finally gets to you.
Try different ways to create obstacles.
Watch out, you may just fall.
Who said what to him or her?
Does it really make a difference anyway?
Yes, consumed in disbelief you crumble.
No, fuck the world.
-Logik
Force
Too many people have given up on
their loved intentions.
Drown out in authoritys voice.
A generation sick of all the
lies that manipulate the world.
Silence is death.
Act up, fall down.
A woman rests with herself
in a bed of lace.
Cushion her head, protect her soul.
Should we shield truth from our self rejection?
Or over throw the misconceptions and the force?
-Logik
Untitled
Happiness is a drug we all take to ease the pain.
Numb my mind.
Parental damage caused by interference
of generations past, of another kind.
Do you see what this means to me?
Do you care?
Hell no!
Dont be afraid to go after lust for gain.
Passion takes control,
I lost my soul.
-Logik
Revolution
Transitory emotions populate reality.
Forcing once common situations to
mutate into disbelief and visionary ideas.
Dig up the old, replace with the new.
Its time to rise to something greater.
Drones of society walk amongst the future.
Too bad theyre too numb to feel it.
Maybe they dont want to.
Change can secure insecurities.
Welcome to the revolution.
-Logik
The Sun
A girl, under a starry sky, prays to a deaf
eared God, who is her savior.
A boy, who rests so far from heaven,
upon the dusty ground, that is his home.
Why must you try and be what I am not?
I try as hard as I can.
I reach, you fall, we crumble,
What is this?
What can be?
The moonbeams that cover the sky.
The water that washes up on the shore.
My soul can cover your body, protect you.
Release me, from your arms...
Why must you try and be everything I am not?
I try as hard as I can.
I reach, you fall, we crumble,
What is this?
What can be?
The sun....
-Logik
A Very Fucked Christmas
Its not a holly bolly Christmas
Its not a white outta site Christmas
This is a FUCKED Christmas
All the little boys and girls
Hugging around the Tree
I head toward their little group
And take a goddamn pea.
No, its not a really special Christmas time for me.
HEY!
Christmas will be so much fun with dead bodies!
Christmas will be so much fun with CHAOS!!
Lets see dad drunk all day.
Lets pay for gifts we cant afford to pay.
Lets eat a really bad dinner.
Lets get FAT, yeah, not thinner!
Lets find out that youre hated all day.
Lets find out that my uncle Jeff is gay.
Lets trade presents in our little home of the insane.
Lets close the blideshides on the homeless
tapping on the window pane!
Yeah, its a FUCKED up Christmas.
Its easy to see that if your me.
Its a FUCKED up Christmas.
God, I really have to pee.
-Mogel
His Hair had Blood in it
The days are light...Seven beams are a Week....I twirl around
in triangular Circles grasping every object in sight...till a
knife is clasped...ripping opening cutting my flesh....A long
stream of Blackened Red Blood drips down of my elbow...I turn
once more in shock to see ragin eyes..eyes of evil anger pain
revenge....The eyes are attached to a white pale face...Rough
straight Bangs are across his face......Blonde with a tint of
brown...The eyes are blue...they only look red...He has blood
...its everywhere....a ring of it...around his neck....In an
instant he appears...head to full body..and walks with a limp
.....shuffling toward me....his mouth wide open....tongue and
drool hanging out. He looks not even at me...some speck...or
dust...in the sky....without looking he moves in my direction
...I am cursed in slow motion...I move just as slow as him...
I cant run...only walk...I look around me...I am at the park
that I used to go to for school.....The bright blue sky glows
against the green grass...We are next to an old huge Oak Tree
...I look at him...Why cant I run?...He closes in on me...No
...No...NO!!...When I was four I used to trip a lot....and my
mom would hit me...I see a twig under my foot...run into it..
I dive to the ground...A graceful trip...The blood soaked man
stumbles closer to me...Inch by inch...I cant get up...tears
roll down my face..A rope is around his neck...He looks at me
for the first time...he sees I see the rope...He vanishes....

Re: Dylan
The world is about being about.
Today Class, we will be trying to figure out the meaning of life.
Theres a simple formula to figure it out, but I want to hear
from you. Billy, lets start with you....
FUCK YOU!!!!!
The WORLD is a FUCKING Pile of SHIT teacher.
Its SHIT teacher!!!
I dont give a shit about you and your god damned class
because you are a fucking bitch and it means NOTHING.
Thats right, this class and this school and this life
and this world mean NOTHING. Everything is SHIT. I am
Shit you are shit. We are all Shit and you and me will
never mean diddly shit because our lives are completely
meaningless so FUCK YOU. Go to hell with your questions.
Hmmm. Very interesting perspective Billy... Sally, lets move to you!
Life is GREAT!
Its all rubber duckies and sweet love!
Its purpose is just to spread the above!
We have to gain world peace and Joy!
For ever single girl and boy!
Well be a seeping-hot happy mass!
Well sing Kum-Bi-Yah with every pass!
I love everyone and everything!
Maybe the meaning of life is just to SING!!!
Go to the corner Sally and think about what you have done, you DUNCE.
You are all stupid little kids... MOGEL... its your turn....
Life is mood swings.
Life is bad dreams.
Life is simple.
Life is complex.
Life is your dimple.
Life is your sex.
Life is nothing.
Life is everything.
Life is a Gift.
Life is a spend thrift!
Life is a old shoe.
Life is a dog poo.
Life is whatever you think it might be.
Life is Art! Go climb a tree!
Life has a meaning thats all your own.
Life is something that would give a dog a bone.
Life is about living each day.
Life is about saying I am Happy, HEY!
Life is about being rude.
Life is about killing a WaReZ d00d!
Life is about being yourself.
Life is about integrity that wont melt.
Life is about things I dont know.
Life is something we shouldnt let go!
Life is something that you dont get!
Life is something thats hot and wetg!
Life is something I need to enjoy.
Life is something good to employ.
Life is about standing up stout!
Life is about being about.

The Big Non-Think
I needed to think.
Think for while.
I forgot how to think.
I forgot how to smile.
All the harm has been done.
It really wasnt too much fun.
I think about it every day.
It makes me rip my life away.
I needed to sleep.
Sleep for while.
I forgot how to Sleep.
I forgot I was on Trial.
All the life has been drained.
My future will only be a strain.
I think about what to do every minute.
I dont know if Im climbing out it or in it.
I needed to die.
Die for a while.
I forgot how to Die.
I forgot I was just a file.
All the pain is back!
I need to get on track!
I think Im gonna run naked in the rain.
Regain my sense of nothingness again.
-Mogel
Trails by Mr. Self Destruct
Listen to my words, they make no sense to me
Echoes of my brains thoughts, and all the things I see.
Sometimes whispers, sometimes screams,
Reflection of the last nights dreams.
Blurred into a sound so alien to me
Listen to my words, they make no sense to me.
Drip by Mr. Self Destruct
Drip, drip, drip
The rain inside my head
The ringing of the words
that you just said
Your soft wet kisses
Your cold gray heart
The sound of comforting words misses
and it brings us further apart
Billboards Of Pain
This everlasting pain you cause me.
You say you dont ever mean to,
but you continually do it again and again.
You never try to feel how I might feel,
and in the end Im the one thats always hurting.
Do you care, or do you make that front like a
billboard on a busy road, never considering my pain?
Like a car crash in the sky, is where you say my mind is,
but do you really care or do you just say it?
Like a billboard in the sky,
but my mind is a mesh of music which has a million
different feelings.
I just want to close my eyes and stop loving anything,
and have no feelings.
-Shade
Dragon Fly
Concentrating so hard while you put life into an inanimate
object.
Concentrating so hard to get your work done.
Leaning so close to the paper,
leaning so close to see something that will never be there.
Struggle,
you control freak.
Struggle,
you nonintellectual person.
Looking up through your hair,
glaring out at the fucking teacher.
Making fun of intellectual people,
because you have something that will lack forever.
-Shade
F.F 1
Afraid to open my eyes.
Afraid to see.
Afraid to see what you
really think of me.
If I close my eyes,
it should all go away,
but when I close my eyes it
comes back again and again.
-Shade
F.F 2
I have known you for thousands of years,
yet not even one.
I have known you for thousands of years,
because thats how much love there is for one.
I think about you all the time.
I think about you with no end.
Chords and tunes run through my head,
but they make no sense.
-Shade
Untitled
I want another friend,
anything but what I have.
I want another feeling,
anything to make me feel again.
Cold and hateful,
from the turning of one.
Cold and hateful,
because of the absence of love.
-Shade
Destinys Hitman
Climbing the walls of destiny
Eyes open wide
Visions of the future
Fill my sleeping head
I open my mouth
and a misty death seeps out
Everything on my shoulders
but theres nothing I can do
Its all been planned.
Now its up to Destinys Hitman
To play its game
To do its job
I open my eyes
To what shouldve been closed forever.
-Smear
How Can I Feel?
If I let you in
will you float away?
Or will you push away?
I can tell you nothing,
but everything I will.
Break me open
just to sew
the hole inside my heart.
Let me roar.
Feather floating
soft and to the ground.
Fall into a puddle of secrets.
Drown, o sweet love, drown.
-Smear
Sweet Lullaby
Sweet lullaby
send me off
to a sleep that will never end.
Sweet lullaby
stay soft and slow
help me up
with your lovely cry.
Sorrowful.
Sweet lullaby
let me rest
a dying soul.
-Smear
Why Do They Cry?
Today I realized why babies cry:
they know what kind of world
weve made for them to live in.
Weve fought our children ignorance
and carelessness.
Weve taken our world
and demolished it.
Today a baby cries,
but maybe tomorrow
some one
anyone
will do something
God, anything
And then, maybe, well have hope
for a future,
for the children.
-Smear
Bean Bag
Youre touch,
youre feel,
youre smell,
have escaped my thinking.
Everywhere I look,
everywhere I go,
youre there,
but I dont know.
I see you in everyone.
I think about you with no extent.
What the fuck am I thinking?
You could never change.
So everything will always be the same.
-Vichyssoise
Well, thats issue number three. I hope you enjoyed it. If you have
any problems, questions, or comments you can reach me Logik at
any of the distro sites, or my board Violence In Heaven. Thank you
and remember.... if your penis is smaller then a pea, then dont
have sex.
